Here We Go! Failed Breakout and Early Morning Test 7/7/22


Recommended Posts

It looked like a sure thing yesterday. The market was breaking out on its way to a conventional measured move target of 3960. But then it stopped, and fell back below the breakout line before New York closed yesterday. This morning, the 24 hour ES S&P fuguetures made another run at yesterday's high, but as of 5 AM New York time, they were having trouble, again. 

There are two numbers they need to beat to be on their way higher. 3865 and 3872. Clearing those would bring the trading algos piling on the long side. 

What about the other way. First things first, there's an uptrend channel line at 3855 in the 5-6 AM hour that needs to be broken. That line rises to 3865 in the opening half hour of regular trading. But even breaking that would only set up a trading range, with the low parameter at 3806. That would need to be broken to turn the pattern into a top for the next couple of days. Which is the only time frame we watch here at the Stool.

My analysis of the bond market has been bearish since August 2020. I have repeatedly written that every rally was a gift, an opportunity to bondholders to GTFO. The recent rally has been no different than those which preceded it in that regard.

Yesterday it seems to have made the turn for the next upleg in yields.  The 10 year Treasury yield bounced hard off of its 100 day MA, after making a slightly higher low than the May low.

Meanwhile the Fed is, as usual, massively behind the curve. Not just behind the inflation curve, but massively behind the curve in its ratification of market interest rates every 6 weeks.

The Fed worries about its inflation fighting credibility. It has no credibility. The evidence shows that consumers are already spending like there's no tomorrow, in their efforts to stay ahead of inflation. Unfortunately, they are right. There is no tomorrow. Might as well enjoy today and buy that air conditioner now, rather than waiting for that end of summer sale.

Buttcoin continues to tease its fans, by hanging around 20,0000 while inexorably headed for its measured move target of 5000 below zero.

That's a weekly bar chart on an arithmetic scale. Cool, huh?

Now the daily chart is less dramatic, but even it points to 13,000 on the basis of a Hurst one year cycle projection.

What might cause a change of outlook there? For starters a rally that broke through and sustained above 23,000. Failing that, this con is headed toward the black hole singularity.

One is real data and the other is survey data. so unless there is some reasonable explanation for the surge in withholding tax collections that involves something other than hiring I would give more weight to that.

Goldman Sachs economist Spencer Hill:

We estimate nonfarm payrolls rose 250k in June ... employment surveys and Big Data employment indicators generally weakened in the month, and the Challenger report showed an increase in job cuts—particularly in real estate, autos, and media. ... We estimate an unchanged unemployment rate at 3.6%—in line with consensus—reflecting a solid rise in household employment offset by a 0.1pp rise in labor force participation to 62.4%.
